How does MWI do that? On the face of it, MWI says nothing about experience, so how do you get that third thing from MWI? (I think you’ll need to do it by adding questionable word definitions, assumptions about personal identity, etc. But I’m willing to be shown I’m wrong!)
I think this post by entirelyuseless answers your question quite well, so if you’re still puzzled by this, we can continue there. Also, I don’t see how QI depends on any additional weird assumptions. After all, you’re using the word “experience” in your list of two points without defining it exactly. I don’t see why it’s necessary to define it either: a conscious experience is most likely simply a computational thing with a physical basis, and MWI and these other big world scenarios essentially say that all physical states (that are not prohibited by the laws of physics) happen somewhere.

As you can see, I’ve replied at some length to entirelyuseless’s comment.
